WSUK Washington/Balitimore
By Andy (2000/05/22)The call letters are synonymous with WHFS. I don't even want to give their web address because I don't want you linking to them from us. Repression you say? I think not. Go to their site and try to back out, that is called repression! How the hell do they think putting a return loop on a site is going to make you stay?
Hypothetical account of a listener:
"Hey okay, I just heard about HFS' site on the radio while I was driving in the car, let's check it out."
After skimming over the site:
"...Oh man this site sucks, is there anything not commercially related or motivated on this site? That's funny I thought I pressed the back button to leave this crap for a page. You know what, since I can't leave, I guess I'll just stay and let it permeate me until I'm saturated with lame"
Now I know you can simply drop down the back menu and go to where you want, but that's not the point here. Did they actually think someone would want to stay just because they have a return loop on their page!?!? What are they run by? A bunch of teenage Warez developers? I'm surprised they don't have a bunch of pop-up ads pointing to porn. I'm sure if they ever read this article, they'll probably hack our site.
I especially like the hoax link "Land Your Band" (tested as of 5-18-2000). Click on it, go ahead, and get nowhere FAST. To think for a second that they would actually spend time on something that wouldn't return instant monetary -benefit!
"The idea of helping a band that may have talent AND create good music worth listening to, has never been attempted here in this organization. Frankly, the idea is appalling and futile." -An anonymous WHFS executive with no passion for music, just industry
"Did somebody say free HFStival tickets?" Good original line there. You guys were probably sweating all night over that one, good for you. It's catchy in a Big Mac kind of way.
If you actually enjoy listening to this white rap station, send us your name and we'll stick it right next to Brittany Spears', in our soon to be featured "Corporate Dildos" section. We'll even interview you if you like, as long as you promise never to visit our site again, we don't want you here.
